Realistic portrait in acrylics. Face #10 Project for a month.

Recently I found a step-by-step art instruction book “Children’s portraits in oil” by Wendon Blake/ paintings by George Passantino. I used the demonstration #1 “Brown-haired girl”. Of cause painting with acrylics is not the same as with oils. I had to work very fast mixing and blending. I used red underpainting vs. white canvas (in demo).It was a good exercise.
